Be in the sacrifice of Christ
To be a Christian is to be in the sacrifice of Christ . Not only do you need to accept that the pure lamb was slain in order to be considered clean an acceptable by the Father (Isaiah 1:18, Revelation 7:15, John 14:6) but you also must be a living sacrifice placed on God’s altar before men. You must sacrifice your life, dreams, goals, and aspirations take up your cross by be a servant to all men. For the Son of man came not to be served but to serve. To only accept Christ sacrifice yet not live in it is a tragedy that will rob the believer of the blessings and perfect will of God. The believer will become bored and dry learning all the scripture by heart yet at the same time never letting it in to their heart so that their spirit might be resurrected in Christ. (James 2:14-26, Galatians 2:20). Often the believer that doesn’t serve will tend to compromise on their faith for unless you crucify the flesh you will follow your flesh which will lead you far from the law of basic Christian doctrine. (Romans 8:1-17). So therefore I implore us all to be a poured offering before men (Philippians 2:17, 2 Timothy 4:6) that our flesh within be crucified to allow the resurrection in Christ Holy Spirit to begin. Anything less than this living sacrifice will lead us to spiritual death.
